I’m Actually a Cultivation Bigshot

Chapter 41 - The Rare Nine-Tailed Fox



After loosening up the soil, Li Nianfan suddenly called out as if remembering something, “Xiao Bai, Blackie, come here and help me out!”

“My dearest master, I’m coming.” Xiao Bai ran to him from the inner court.

“Woof woof woof!” Blackie ran over upon hearing his name, tail wagging.

Li Nianfan nodded in satisfaction. He almost forgot that he had two free laborers at home. It would be more efficient with their help.

The Holy Emperor had gifted him a lot of elixirs. Each elixir looked different from one another, yet equally as good. Once he was done planting them, this plot of land would become a mini-elixir garden.

Li Nianfan prepared sixteen flower beds for the elixirs and Spiritual Herbs given by Lin Qingyun. He had even mapped out where to plant each of them, ensuring his visitors would be captured by the sight of it upon entering.

The key to it all was the special seed.

After contemplating for a long time, he had decided to plant the seed by the pond. The soil around that area was fertilized. With no other plants around, there was sufficient water which made it the best location in his backyard. With his careful attention, he believed that there was no way it would not sprout!

Three days had passed.

Li Nianfan’s life had turned cozier than ever. He spent his days gardening, playing chess, and talking to the lady of the house. The cultivators like Bai Wuzhen would drop by from time to time with wild meat. Perhaps this was the highly coveted ‘unpretentious life of luxury’, or so it was called in his previous realm.

However, the news of a monster-transformation had not passed yet. In fact, it was still causing an uproar. News had spread that the transformation was of a nine-tailed fox!

Many people visited the town due to this.

Nine-tailed foxes were a rare species. One could say that its body was filled with treasure. They came from a bloodline that was far more superior than many of the ordinary monsters. A normal fox turning into a nine-tailed fox was more difficult than a mortal man turning into an immortal!

For the past thousand years or so, people heard less of the nine-tailed fox. Many even thought that the nine-tailed fox had gone extinct. Little did they know that they would hear about the nine-tailed fox again.

Rumor had it that drinking just a drop of a nine-tailed fox’s blood would be able to wash out one’s essence and marrow, like a renewal and rebirth. Additionally, cultivating beside a nine-tailed fox would enable one to hear the Basics of Wisdom.

Who asked God to favor the nine-tailed fox more than anything?

Many people would not even think of hunting them down since their powers undoubtedly exceeded the power of most cultivators. It could be said that they were almost as powerful as the immortals. However, this nine-tailed fox…has transformed!

It was seen as a timeless treasure—a treasure with no owner. Whoever found it would be able to own it!

The greatest opportunity was suddenly made available. How could the cultivators remain calm?

Up in the sky above the Ganlong Immortal Dynasty, sparks of light could be seen flashing across the sky as cultivators patrolled the mountains. If it were not for Bai Wuchen and the others who kept protecting Li Nianfan, his peaceful life would have ended sooner or later.

The Holy Emperor was the most stressed of them all. He had difficulty sleeping due to this. “If any fool were to bump into the expert and cause him to leave, it’d be the greatest loss for my Dynasty!” he said anxiously.

Meanwhile, a huge boat appeared, floating in the cloudless sky. It blocked the daylight as it sailed high in the sky while exuding a bright glow and vibration. Even the cultivators flying nearby were blinded by its glow. Hurriedly, they all stopped flying and landed on the ground. They did not dare to fly alongside the boat.

“It’s the flying boat of the Linxian Palace!”

“The nine-tailed fox has attracted the attention of the Linxian Palace? If they’re here, there’s no more hope for the others.”

“Look at the front of the flying boat. Is that beautiful lady an Immortal?”

“Tzz… A Yuan Ying cultivator!?”

The cultivators looked at the young lady with shock and respect. Even the Holy Emperor was shocked. Even the people from the Linxian Palace came? Without further ado, he hurriedly brought along Luo Shiyu to the entrance, waiting to greet her.

The flying boat halted to a stop. The young lady was like a goddess from above, surrounded by a thin layer of mist. Her expression was cold and arrogant while her beautiful eyes were simple and all-knowing. She descended from the boat, floating to the ground looking like a beautiful fountain from above.

The Holy Emperor walked toward her and greeted, “Welcome to the Ganlong Immortal Dynasty, Miss Qin.”

He was slightly bitter about the fact that she was already a Yuan Ying at such a young age. It was no surprise that she was the Saintess of Linxian Palace, and with her abilities, she could easily start her own sect in the Ganlong Immortal Dynasty!

The reason why the Linxian Palace named themselves ‘Linxian’ [TN] was not out of arrogance. It was because they were just one step away from being Immortals. In other words, they were one of the most powerful groups in the Cultivation world!

Luo Shiyu stood beside her father and greeted, “Greetings to Sister Manyun.”

Qin Manyun smiled at Luo Shiyu, slightly surprised. “It’s only been a while since I last saw you but Sister Shiyu’s already had a breakthrough to the later stage of the Foundation Building! You’re indeed a genius.”

She was genuinely surprised. As Ganlong Immortal Dynasty was located at the poorer part of the Cultivation to Immortality Realm, being able to reach the late stage of Foundation Building at such a young age meant that Luo Shiyu had a limitless future. She was almost tempted to invite Luo Shiyu to join the Linxian Palace.

Luo Shiyu smiled without speaking. Only she knew that this was all because of Li Nianfan. Just by spending so much time with an expert like him, even a pig could become an Immortal!

Of course, she would not reveal such a huge secret.

The Holy Emperor invited Qin Manyu to enter the Dynasty, attending to her with the highest respect. He asked Zhong Xiu to make them some tea.

After she was seated in the lobby, the Holy Emperor asked, “May I ask, what brought Miss Qin here?”

Qin Manyun smiled. “I’m sure Luo Emperor already guessed it. I’m here for the nine-tailed fox!”

The Holy Emperor smiled bitterly. It was just as he assumed.

The nine-tailed fox was too tempting to be missed. Even he was surprised when he heard of the nine-tailed fox’s transformation. It all made sense later on, though. Of course, the monster that the expert was interested in was nothing but ordinary. If it was an ordinary monster, he would not have saved her.

However…even the Linxian Palace was interested in the nine-tailed fox now! Emperor Luo thought that this was equivalent to looking for trouble. He wanted to warn her, but he did not want to expose Li Nianfan’s existence. Sigh. So difficult.

The Holy Emperor could only persuade her indirectly. “We haven’t seen a nine-tailed fox for almost a thousand years, so it could be a rumor and nothing substantial.”

“I’ve asked around. It was the Silver Moon Demon King who spread the news so it should be true,” Qin Manyun shook her head. She then looked at the Holy Emperor with a suspicious look. “Didn’t you consider looking for the nine-tailed fox at all?”

“Ah…yes. I did send my men to look for it in the mountains, just to try my luck,” the Holy Emperor said hastily.

Meanwhile, he was cursing the Silver Moon Demon King in his heart. This creature had no idea what kind of crime it had committed! It was not far from its death! He could not help but recall the two Monsters that were going up to Li Nianfan’s gate. They must have been sent there by the Silver Moon Demon King. Those monsters were transformed back into their basic forms by the scholar and there was an 80 percent chance that they had turned into feces by now.

They should consider themselves lucky to be able to become the feces of the expert!
